2009-05-04usbnet: CDC EEM support (v5)Omar Laazimani
This introduces a CDC Ethernet Emulation Model (EEM) host side driver to support USB EEM devices. EEM is different from the Ethernet Control Model (ECM) currently supported by the "CDC Ethernet" driver. One key difference is that it doesn't require of USB interface alternate settings to manage interface state; some maldesigned hardware can't handle that part of USB. It also avoids a separate USB interface for control and status updates.

2009-05-01smsc95xx: add support for LAN9512 and LAN9514Steve Glendinning
LAN9512 and LAN9514 are USB hubs with an integrated 10/100 ethernet controller. Logically this looks like an ethernet controller (similar to LAN9500) permanently attached to one of the hub's downstream ports.

2009-05-01netconsole: take care of NETDEV_UNREGISTER eventBruno Prémont
When netconsole is loaded and a network interface fades away (e.g. on rmmod $interface_driver_module) the rmmod remains stuck and some locks are taken that prevent any additional module loading/unloading as well as interface up/down changes. In addition kernel logs (and console) get flooded at 10s interval with [ 122.464065] unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free. Usage count = 1 [ 132.704059] unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free. Usage count = 1 This patch lets netconsole take NETDEV_UNREGISTER event into account and release the affected interface if it was in use.

2009-04-29mv643xx_eth: 64bit mib counter read fixLennert Buytenhek
On several mv643xx_eth hardware versions, the two 64bit mib counters for 'good octets received' and 'good octets sent' are actually 32bit counters, and reading from the upper half of the register has the same effect as reading from the lower half of the register: an atomic read-and-clear of the entire 32bit counter value. This can under heavy traffic occasionally lead to small numbers being added to the upper half of the 64bit mib counter even though no 32bit wrap has occured. Since we poll the mib counters at least every 30 seconds anyway, we might as well just skip the reads of the upper halves of the hardware counters without breaking the stats, which this patch does.

2009-04-29mv643xx_eth: OOM handling fixesLennert Buytenhek
Currently, when OOM occurs during rx ring refill, mv643xx_eth will get into an infinite loop, due to the refill function setting the OOM bit but not clearing the 'rx refill needed' bit for this queue, while the calling function (the NAPI poll handler) will call the refill function in a loop until the 'rx refill needed' bit goes off, without checking the OOM bit. This patch fixes this by checking the OOM bit in the NAPI poll handler before attempting to do rx refill. This means that once OOM occurs, we won't try to do any memory allocations again until the next invocation of the poll handler. While we're at it, change the OOM flag to be a single bit instead of one bit per receive queue since OOM is a system state rather than a per-queue state, and cancel the OOM timer on entry to the NAPI poll handler if it's running to prevent it from firing when we've already come out of OOM.

2009-04-28e100: do not go D3 in shutdown unless system is powering offThadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo
After experimenting with kexec with the last merges after 2.6.29, I've had some problems when probing e100. It would not read the eeprom. After some bisects, I realized this has been like that since forever (at least 2.6.18). The problem is that shutdown is doing the same thing that suspend does and puts the device in D3 state. I couldn't find a way to get the device back to a sane state in the probe function. So, based on some similar patches from Rafael J. Wysocki for e1000, e1000e, and ixgbe, I wrote this one for e100.

2009-04-228139too: fix HW initial flowJianjun kong
While ifconfig eth0 up kernel calls open() of 8139 driver(8139too.c). In rtl8139_hw_start() of rtl8139_open(), 8139 driver enable RX before setting up the DMA buffer address. In this interval where RX was enabled and DMA buffer address is not yet set up, any incoming broadcast packet would be send to a strange physical address: 0x003e8800 which is the default value of DMA buffer address. Unfortunately, this address is used by Linux kernel. So kernel panics. This patch fix it by setting up DMA buffer address before RX enabled and everything is fine even under broadcast packets attack.

2009-04-21iwlwifi: DMA fixesReinette Chatre
A few issues wrt DMA were uncovered when using the driver with swiotlb. - driver should not use memory after it has been mapped - iwl3945's RX queue management cannot use all of iwlagn because the size of the RX buffer is different. Revert back to using iwl3945 specific routines that map/unmap memory. - no need to "dma_syn_single_range_for_cpu" followed by pci_unmap_single, we can just call pci_unmap_single initially - only map the memory area that will be used by device. this is especially relevant to the mapping of iwl_cmd. we should not map the entire structure because the meta data at the beginning of structure contains the address to be used later for unmapping. If the address to be used for unmapping is stored in mapped data it creates a problem. - ensure that _if_ memory needs to be modified after it is mapped that we call _sync_single_for_cpu first, and then release it back to device with _sync_single_for_device - we mapped the wrong length of data for host commands, with mapped length differing with length provided to device, fix that.

2009-04-21iwlwifi: add debugging for TX pathReinette Chatre
When debugging TX issues it is helpful to know the seq nr of the frame being transmitted. The seq nr is printed as part of ucode's log informing us which frame is being processed. Having this information printed in driver log makes it easy to match activities between driver and firmware. Also make possible to print TX flags directly. These are already printed as part of entire TX command, but having it printed directly in cpu format makes it easier to look at.

2009-04-20tun: Fix sk_sleep races when attaching/detachingHerbert Xu
As the sk_sleep wait queue actually lives in tfile, which may be detached from the tun device, bad things will happen when we use sk_sleep after detaching. Since the tun device is the persistent data structure here (when requested by the user), it makes much more sense to have the wait queue live there. There is no reason to have it in tfile at all since the only time we can wait is if we have a tun attached. In fact we already have a wait queue in tun_struct, so we might as well use it.

2009-04-20tun: Only free a netdev when all tun descriptors are closedHerbert Xu
The commit c70f182940f988448f3c12a209d18b1edc276e33 ("tun: Fix races between tun_net_close and free_netdev") fixed a race where an asynchronous deletion of a tun device can hose a poll(2) on a tun fd attached to that device. However, this came at the cost of moving the tun wait queue into the tun file data structure. The problem with this is that it imposes restrictions on when and where the tun device can access the wait queue since the tun file may change at any time due to detaching and reattaching. In particular, now that we need to use the wait queue on the receive path it becomes difficult to properly synchronise this with the detachment of the tun device. This patch solves the original race in a different way. Since the race is only because the underlying memory gets freed, we can prevent it simply by ensuring that we don't do that until all tun descriptors ever attached to the device (even if they have since be detached because they may still be sitting in poll) have been closed. This is done by using reference counting the attached tun file descriptors. The refcount in tun->sk has been reappropriated for this purpose since it was already being used for that, albeit from the opposite angle. Note that we no longer zero tfile->tun since tun_get will return NULL anyway after the refcount on tfile hits zero. Instead it represents whether this device has ever been attached to a device.
